Burns Night / Holly Holy Day

Once again January is Burns Night. This time on Jan 18th I was with Bernard in Salford. As well as playing for dancing he played while the guests assembled, piped in the haggis (on an accordion)  and sang for them.
It was just as well that they had not booked a large band, half of the room was cordoned off and arranged as a set for Coronation Street.
Jan 25th saw me with Forlorn Hope in Nantwich museum, C17 music, songs and dancing as part of  Holly Holy Day (the sealed knot re-enactment of the battle of Nantwich)
I didn't stay to watch the battle as my grand-daughter was dancing in a ballet show.
Then home for a meal and another change of costume and up to Stand Golf Club for their Burns night Dinner / ceilidh with High Jinks. A full floor, lots of dancing, and a little bit of chaos, as usual.

High Jinks also played for Adlington Dance club's dance the next Saturday, a versatile group.
